(Mr Potsblog on the road)
Taughannock Falls is the tallest of Ithaca's 150 waterfalls. Taller than Niagara we are told, but it is just a small river, unlike Niagara. It is a rather incredible walk up the river gorge to these falls. It is somewhat disconcerting seeing all the boulders on the trail which have fallen from the cliffs above, but I was not flattened as you can see.
Tremendous fun has been had here with Mike. Gave me an excuse to be a bit of a tourist. Off to my parents' farm, briefly, then goodbye and back to the weary grind of making bunnies and pigs this afternoon.

"weary grind," he says. As if, I say.
What a beauty spot to have near you. You live such a peaceful life! We have a river in our back yard that flows through our town but it ain't a beauty like this.
Yeah, I'll give ya "weary grind", Gary
with all those blocks and pieces looks like some nice Devonian shale. Or is it all sandstone?
I know, WEARY GRIND INDEED!
Shale. Layers and layers of it, falling down all over the place. Lovely building material.
